Hello there ladies! I was diagnosed 23 March 2013 and within the seven months I have had neoadjuvant chemo (meaning chemo before surgery) 8 treatments altogether, then right breast mastectomy where 17 axillary nodes were removed. I now have appointment to have the radiotherapy plan put in place this thursday. At first I was told I did not need to take the drug, tamoxifen, as he said there would be very lil benefits in my case. Then I was called back as my Medical Oncologist got an second opinion and now has given me the opportunity if I wish to take it. I am border line Triple Neg with PR 2%- ER 3% staining.
I am thinking more along the line that I will decline the offer.
Anybody been in this situation you know of?
Look forward to a reply.
